Instead of traveling for Thanksgiving, we hosted 3 other families at our house. We had a great time!! There was so much food . . . here's the after math.
There were 8 kids . . . here are 6 sitting at the kids' table. The other two are under a year old (and super cute, too)!
After we ate, the older kids had these "cracker" packs that they popped apart. Inside were gifts and these paper crowns. Thanksgiving was a beautiful day and the kids enjoyed playing outside (thank goodness).

On Friday, we went to Durham to see the Rockettes Christmas Spectacular. It was great! And we enjoyed Durham, too. I hope to go back there again. Here is a close up of the girls with the stage in the back ground.
Our friends, the Lovings, visited from D.C. and stayed with us Wednesday-Saturday. On Saturday morning, the guys played golf while the girls did some shopping. We stopped by the bookstore in Southern Pines. After that, this is what the little girls did . . .
It was a wonderful weekend with many reasons to give thanks. Now we are working on Christmas decorations, and our house looks like Christmas has exploded. Yikes!
Oh, and also, ROLL TIDE!
